Locals to occupy Glasgow regeneration area used as set for Still Game

LOCAL people are set to begin staging an occupation of derelict land used as the main location in the BBC’s Still Game today, in a bid to stop Glasgow City Council selling it for a private housing development. Living Rent and Wyndford Tenants Union say the occupation in The Valley on Collina Street in Glasgow’s Maryhill will start at noon, matching the council’s original deadline for developer bids, although this has now been extended. To comply with social distancing, one person at a time will occupy a tent on the site and a string of volunteers intend to maintain a presence round-the-clock until the council stops the sale and speaks with locals, who are considering a community buyout.
